Rockland Mansion
With nearly all of its original 1801 features intact, Rockland Mansion is by all accounts an outstanding Philadelphia
Federal style villa. Special features include a graceful elliptical staircase and four full-length sliding sash
windows that connect the parlor with the back porch.
Having undergone a complete restoration in the past four years after many years of neglect and abandonment, Rockland
is one of the latest Fairmount Park success stories. Kudos to the Psychoanalytic Center of Philadelphia, who now calls
Rockland home, and the Fairmount Park Historic Preservation Trust for returning this gem to the showcase we always
knew it could be.
Location:
East Fairmount Park
